Anniversary Post
Happy fourth wedding anniversary Christy Ann Martine I love you so much. 💕 After so many years of long-distance, it's wonderful to be settled into our beautiful life together with you in Canada. 🇨🇦
I love our long walks around the lake, and how you walk around the world in wide-eyed wonder, noticing the little things in life that other people miss. I love the way we always laugh together and find humour in everything, even when times get hard. We have come to understand one another in ways that nobody else does.
I love our mornings writing poetry together ✍️, our nights watching movies. 🍿 The interesting conversations that stimulate our minds and imaginations. The joyful moments we share each day have become my comfort. Our relationship is truly unique and wonderful. 💕
I'm grateful for your enduring love that has transformed my life in so many ways. Every day, you inspire me to be a better man and husband.
Thank you for being my "Undeniable Miracle." I look forward to the new memories we will make as we fill our lives with love and laughter. 💖🌹

Lose Ourselves
Let the world outside
forget us for a while,
as we lose ourselves
in these moments together.
Even when we don’t speak,
the silence is charged
with magic and meaning.
Hearts have their own language,
and ours are always speaking.
— John Mark Green / Lose Ourselves

And If the Stars Should Ever Die
This line is from a poem in the book The Light You Need II: Romantic Love Poetry.
I also wrote a short story inspired by it, titled "If the Stars Should Ever Die," which can be found in my book of short fiction, She Had a Very Inconvenient Heart. In the story, lovers face the end of the world together when a mysterious force begins killing the stars and devouring all light in the universe.
